One Piece Preview Sets Up Kuzan's Heel Turn

One Piece Episode 1115 is teasing a look into Kuzan's heel turn with its preview

By Nick Valdez

One Piece is now working its way through a new fight between Sword and Blackbeard's pirates, and the preview for Episode 1115 of the anime is setting up why former Admiral Kuzan went through a heel turn. One Piece has shifted its attention for a bit during the Egghead Arc as Koby has been trying to escape capture on Beehive. This was taken to the next level as Garp made his way to the island to save his favorite pupil, and kicked off a huge new fight in order to rescue Koby. But then it was all interrupted by Garp's former pupil, Kuzan. 

Kuzan mysteriously left the Navy following the events of Marineford, and it's explained that he did so after losing to Akainu and refusing to work under him. But there had yet to be an explanation as to how and why Kuzan is now a member of the Blackbeard Pirates instead. Now it seems we will finally get to see this crucial part of the history as the preview for One Piece Episode 1115 teases that we'll get to see Kuzan going through his heel turn. You can check out the preview for One Piece Episode 1115 below.
